I pointed out that it may have impact on defconfig, but experimentally
it has no effect.
Users of "make oldconfig" get a prompt in both cases as well.
Also I haven't found any difference for silentoldconfig, olddefconfig
and alldefconfig, I assume explicit "default n" and "def_bool n"
can be safely dropped.
